I have been riding the same bike for the last 21 years, and am still in love with my 650 Transalp. Best bike Honda have ever made!
I think you may be right there its an amazing machine ..... I certainly love riding it
I've had mine for 8 years covered 80,000 km through 25 countries in Europe, love it.
That’s good going. It’s a brilliant bike and I have lots more travelling to do.
I have the exact same model with the same color, bought it this year in February. I love the bike, it is so reliable.
Thank You I bought mine in April .... yes amazing bike and I love it too I am just preparing her for a holland adventure now
A friend of mine and I bought 2 2006 Transalps. I kept mine for 8 years, since new. In 2014 I replaced mine with a 2009 Varadero. Varadero is a great and amazing bike when it comes to traveling. But, for some reason I really miss my Transalp and thinking of buying one again. It was so simple to use, maintain and handle. A bike that did it all without any trouble. Could be used easily in urban, mountain and highway roads. My friend still owns his Transalp and has about 180.000km on the odometer, with proper maintenance and no problems at all! Realy enjoyed your video!👍
A friend of mine just bought the T7 he has a transalp 600 .... but soon sold the T7 because he said the Transalp has more connection .... Thank you I love making the videos and sharing my experiences. the Transalp is great bike to maintain and as I am no mechanic I love the ease of the Transalp I have done a lot of services on mine and I find them very easy to work on. I think you sgould by another onethere aree plenty of them for sale and you can find a good one i am sure
Very nice!! Am subscribing :-)
Thank You Welcome to the channel
In 2023, I did 23,000km from France to Armenia and back, then Portugal and Spain. In 2024, I did 11,000km from France to Mauritania and back. 1997 Transalp 600. Bulletproof, reliable, and require a minimum of maintenance.
I do love my Transalp it’s a beautiful motorcycle and recently I have upgraded a few things keep up to date with the changes and I will be posting the content on the channel
Hello 🙋 good luck to your next adventures 😁🤙 great bike 🙏☺️
Thank you there will be lots more adventures. I have a few plans for more beginning with one in two weeks where I am going to Holland and then in April one big one to Morocco. Do you ride. And if so what bike and where do you like to ride. 😉
@@AdvenTrisMoto nice to hear that. It will be a great experience. 😁👌
I also have a 2001 Transalp. 🙏☺️ You can check the channel 😁🤙
@@LutziferVideographer thank you once again. And yes I look forward to the experience as I have only had my A licence since April
@@AdvenTrisMoto My TransALP now has 168,000km. My brother did the first 100,000 km from 2005 to 2015. And I did the rest of 70,000 km from 2016 to 2022. 😁🤙
@@LutziferVideographer that’s great and still going strong I hope.
Nice video! Could you please tell me where you get your gps mount bar from please?
Thank you I bought the gps mount bar from amazon here is the link

Hi, can you tell me where to get the satnav mount. Thanks
Hi there I bought the accessory bar from amazon here is the link

Hello
I attached it to the piece of plastic that covers the speedo cockpit area two M6 Nuts and bolts with a double nut to prevent it from coming loose then the Sat nav bar I got from amazon
Hope that helps
@@AdvenTrisMoto thanks for your reply
Your welcome
@@seriouskidsthemusic
I have the exact same model 👍🏻. Were did you bought the support mount for the GPS above de clocks?
It’s a great motorbike
The accessories bar was from Amazon
Dingln GPS Navigation Motorcycle... www.amazon.de/dp/B08DP39WSM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share hope this helps
@@AdvenTrisMoto thanks for the useful review 🌟 I am planning on adding this accesory too. How did you mount it? Screws to the cockpit?
@@migueldorantes3047 Yeah it screws into the cover for the speedometer
Good evening thank you very much for this informative video. I was wondering if you think a 2001 transalp with some kms (30-40k) is a good alternative to newer tourers? I ask as someone who has no mechanical talents when it comes to fixing motorbikes. Thank you in advance
Hi there
Thank you Personally I think an older model would benefit you. more, the reason I bought one. The older models you can easily repair them and service them without the worry of dealership services which cost a-lot of money these days, I am definitely not a mechanic in any way, but I have learnt over they year to do oil changes and repair things when I need to .... there is a lot of forums, help with step by step videos on You Tube and the internet to help uo along the way . You will also learn more about your bike.How everything works and so on ..... so yes I think an older model is worth it.
@@AdvenTrisMoto thank you very much for getting back to me it’s greatly appreciated 🙏🏻🍺
You’re welcome
I've bought my 2001 XL650V Transalp and I have around 2000km riden, it's my first bike and I love it a lot, but I have one problem - I don't like the vibrations it have from 3500 to 4500 rpm, and 4000 rpm is where it's the worst, ive serviced it properly, it has new tires and balanced wheels, new spark plugs, new air and oil filter and new oil, also did carbs clear and synchronizing, but I still feel bad vibrations.. It's not the wheels, because when I do 100km/h and press the clutch and let the RPM's go down to idle the bike is perfectly calm, but when I rev the engine to 4000 rpm or release the clutch and continue driving it vibrates a lot again.. I feel it in the handlebar, in the foot pegs as well as the seat and the fuel tank... My mechanic said it could possibly be something from the clutch or engine chain or the engine crankshaft, I think it can be from the engine mount or CDI module... What can you guys suggest to look for or if you know a way to reduce the vibrations so I can ride and not have numb hands after just 30-50 km... Or is this normal for this bike and you just embrace it and get used to it...
I had a similar experience I added bar end weights to the handlebars. I also put a small vibration square mat under the tank to stop the vibrations. I had the forks serviced and replaced the chrome tubes as well as the front wheel spokes replaced. due to the front wheel having lots of vibrations and the forks being bent. I had the bike also serviced and every nut checked and tightened. I replaced the foot pegs and fixed the fairing and tightened the plastic holders. now the vibrations are present I think it's just HONDA TRANSALP but it doesn't vibrate a lot anymore.
Check your front wheel and forks as thats where most of the vibrations came from I know you had it Balanced but so did I. the vibration was still there until I had Forks serviced and replaced. When it's safe to do so and BE CAREFUL AS YOU MAY HAVE A SPEED WOBBLE but ride to 100 Km/H and let go of the handlebars and KEEP YOUR HANDS CLOSE TO THE HANDLEBARS if it wobbles, or drifts left or right it'll be the front where the vibration is and it transfers to the rest of the bike.
Now My bike rides perfectly Straight from 100km/h and slows down to 50 km/H after a full Service of the front end
Hi Tristan
I just bought one yesterday after dreaming of it for many years!
From your accent i take it your south african? I'm from Worcester (SA). Would relly like to meet you one day maybe?
Cheers!
Hello Yes I grew up in South Africa, and yes one day I will return to South Africa and I will let you know then maybe go for a ride if your around
Its a great bike I am sure youll have lots of great adventures on it
@@AdvenTrisMoto happy miles my friend!
I have the same bike, i bought her about 5 years ago and love it. A great bike for touring on and will never sell it, reliable and solid.
I also love my bike and yes will never sell it either. I have just got back from Morocco and it was incredible very reliable bike went 9500 km and no issues
@AdvenTrisMoto yeah I watched a few of your videos there, and for someone who's recently jumped on to the bigger bikes that's some going, fair play to you. I ride with my son but we mainly tour the uk , Scottish highlands, lake districts, ireland. But have be planning europe the last few months.
Stay safe sir and look forward to more videos on your alp.
@@Hhfhhddd thank you. Everyone loves and adventures and yes it was a big risk to go to Morocco but I met some amazing friends on route and the memories will always be with me. There are many more adventures planned and Norway is the next big one.
When you plan for Europe stop by in Austria for a beer and local roads I can share some routes with you as I have travelled a lot in Europe and Austria
How is the TFX SUSPENSION working.is it good
It works but I think the sag is wrong and have to adjust it because the company didn't really care when I left the shop and there after care service does not exist.
Can you tell us about your luggage racks please?
They are from Louis Motorrad in Austria if you go to there website just search for the luggage side racks for Honda Transalp 2001 but I think they do different ones if you have a different year

Theses are similar ones to the ones I bought
